Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Zhang Haoxuan nodded and said, "Yes, the most important mission here is to cultivate reserve talents for the organization. Since it\'s adjacent to Jiali Academy, we can also make use of some resources from Jiali Academy. So, within the organization, from now on, you are a part of Redemption Academy. You can study alongside others."

"All right." Tang San nodded. He had always felt a natural closeness to the term "academy."

Zhang Haoxuan continued, "First, I\'ll imprint a mark on you to establish your identity as a redeemer. Then I\'ll take you to report to our Redemption Academy. Remember clearly the instructions I\'ve given you: do not disclose anything about the Mysterious Heaven Method. And never use the marks of other Monsters\' abilities in front of others. You only have one ability, and that is the wind blade."

"Yes."

The imprinting of the mark was somewhat similar to a tattoo. Using a thin needle dipped in a special liquid, Zhang Haoxuan inked a mark onto the back of Tang San\'s right hand. The mark resembled a snowflake but with more pronounced curves. After it was done, it turned red—a red snowflake that looked hauntingly beautiful.

Once the mark was inked and the liquid was fully absorbed, it naturally disappeared from the surface of the skin. Following Zhang Haoxuan\'s instructions, to reveal the mark, Tang San needed to activate his bloodline power and let it flow beneath the skin in a special rhythm. It was quite miraculous.

"Let\'s go, I\'ll take you to the academy." After completing these tasks, Zhang Haoxuan nodded in satisfaction.

As they walked out of the cabin, Tang San subconsciously glanced at the spot on his hand where the mark had been imprinted. From this moment on, he had truly become a member of the Redemption Organization. He wondered how this day would be recorded in the history of the Demon Monster Land. If he could return to his former glory in the future, then perhaps this day would be one worth commemorating.

Zhang Haoxuan led Tang San towards the rear of the academy town. It was only when they nearly reached the mountainside that they stopped in front of a cluster of cabins.

The wood used for these cabins tended to blend with the color of the mountain rock, making them somewhat hard to spot from the town unless looked at closely. It was only when they got near that they could see there was quite a large cluster of cabins here.

This spot on the mountainside was a plateau with dozens of cabins, subtly forming a circle.

As they approached the cabins, a figure appeared before them. It was a teenager, about thirteen or fourteen years old, who smiled upon seeing Zhang Haoxuan and said, "Mayor, you\'ve arrived."

Zhang Haoxuan nodded to him, "I\'ve brought a newcomer."

The teenager peeked at Tang San and immediately looked surprised, "Such a young newcomer? Isn\'t it said that only those over twelve who have passed the tests can come here?"

"Why so many questions? Just lead the way," Zhang Haoxuan said irritably.

The teenager appeared somewhat afraid of him and turned to lead the way.

They passed through the cabin at the forefront, and behind it was a very spacious courtyard, enclosed by other cabins; it was somewhat reminiscent of a large compound.

"The mayor is here!" the teenager shouted. Instantly, over a dozen people emerged from the cabins. They were referred to this way because they were adolescents, seemingly quite young and very lively.

Following them, a few adults came out from behind.

Tang San stood beside Zhang Haoxuan and observed coldly. He noticed that there were more boys among these teenagers than girls. The bloodline aura of each was different but notably strong. This strength was not in their power but in their bloodline itself.

It seemed that the talent requirements to enter the Redemption Academy were indeed not low.

The teenagers were also curiously sizing him up. In terms of age, Tang San seemed younger than them.

Zhang Haoxuan clapped his hands, drawing everyone\'s attention to himself, "This is my newly accepted disciple, Tang San. From today onwards, he will also be studying at the academy. Old Guan, please make arrangements."

A middle-aged man with a medium build and a scholarly appearance came forward, surprised, "Your new disciple? You\'ve taken a disciple?"

Zhang Haoxuan nodded, "This child is quite special and has great potential for cultivation. I\'ll talk to you about it later, you make the arrangements first."

"Okay." Teacher Guan didn\'t say anything more and nodded back at him.

Zhang Haoxuan turned to Tang San and said, "This is Guan Longjiang, the head instructor and person in charge of the Academy. He will arrange your accommodation and studies. I will come to see you regularly. I have other matters to attend to now, so I\'m leaving. Don\'t forget my admonitions to you today."

"Yes, Teacher." Tang San nodded.

Zhang Haoxuan pulled Guan Longjiang aside and said a few words to him in private, then he was ready to leave.

"Teacher!" Tang San quickly took a few steps forward and called out to Zhang Haoxuan.

"What is it? You\'ll need to slowly adapt to the new environment," Zhang Haoxuan thought Tang San was a bit timid about coming to this strange place.

However, Tang San said, "I\'m sure I can adapt. I just wanted to ask if I can go out on my own? Like to go to the city to buy some necessities for daily life."

Guan Longjiang, standing by, couldn\'t help but look at him in surprise.

Zhang Haoxuan said, "Try not to go out, but if you really need to, you have to ask Head Instructor Guan for leave and get permission before you can go. Moreover, you must return on the same day."

"Okay, Teacher."

Being able to go out was enough. How else was he to meet Pretty Girl without going out?

Returning to Jiali City, for Tang San, the most important thing was to meet Pretty Girl!

Only then did Zhang Haoxuan leave.

Guan Longjiang said, "Come, Tang San, follow me to meet everyone." As he spoke, he took Tang San back to the center of the courtyard.

Guan Longjiang said, "Our academy now has a total of sixteen students, including you, and five teachers including me and the town mayor. Let me introduce you to the other three teachers first."

As he spoke, he first pointed to a young woman around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, extremely beautiful in appearance.

"This is Teacher Mu Yunyu. She is mainly responsible for your daily life and physical training courses."

Teacher Mu Yunyu had a tall figure, about one meter seventy, dressed in a green outfit, with gentle and water-like eyes, eyes that moved expressively, filled with approachability, and a somewhat delicate demeanor.

But Tang San found that when Guan Longjiang introduced her, the other students around clearly showed a trace of fear. Teacher Mu\'s inner temperament probably wasn\'t as consistent with her outward appearance.

"Greetings, Teacher Mu," Tang San immediately bowed to Mu Yunyu.

Mu Yunyu smiled slightly, her voice carrying a bit of a coquettish tone, "Hello, little Tang San. Welcome to the academy. You\'re too frail, you\'ll need to strengthen your physical training, alright?"

"Thank you, Teacher." Tang San nodded right away. However, the coquettish tone gave him a bit of goosebumps.

Guan Longjiang frowned slightly, coughed, and pointed to another middle-aged man, "Teacher Mu Enqing is Teacher Mu Yunyu\'s older brother. He is in charge of practical combat courses."

Mu Enqing didn\'t resemble Mu Yunyu at all; the tall stature and rugged facial features bore a somewhat bold air. It was hard to imagine that he and the delicate and glamorous Mu Yunyu were actually siblings.
